ctftime showing 22 juil. 2022, 14:00 UTC

[uneven pendant]

ctftime apparently ignores the timezone you enter when submitting an event and also doesn't let you change it

[waxen sigil]

Yes you have to enter it in utc, annoying

[clear blade]

when is this ctf and is it started yet? i thought it was started but the server isnt popping

oh this is different than dicectf 2022, i see

[manic mulch]

https://hope.dicega.ng/

[whole tiger]

where can i ask for support?

[tribal vale]

If you're referring to the hope ctf discord: https://discord.gg/YwbsXyaRGr

[unreal rune]

on a scale of “oh i just guessed the flag” to “you’re better off brute forcing it” how difficult is corCTF gonna be

[uneven pendant]

yes

[stable thistle]

depends how good you're at guessing

[high current]

you can take a look at last year's writeups / challenge archive

there will be some beginner/easy challs but also very hard ones

[rapid nacelle]

you could also find a unintended zeroday

Then the challs are easy

Hello I need some help with getting a remote job. I am currently in India. I want to work for a US/Canada based company. First of all i want to know, is it even possible. If it's possible then I would appreciate any help I can get to get a remote job.

I am a full stack web developer. With almost 2 years of experience. Currently working for a big corp in India as full stack developer.

[proud palm]

Can someone help me to become an advanced ethical hacker?

[rain violet]

@sage musk statement?

[sage musk]

to become a real hacker you must first make at least 3 shodan botnets and 1 keylogger

[tribal vale]

you must also use kali linux

[rapid nacelle]

Also remember to post your questions on r/master-hacker so we can laugh at them pls

[languid pine]

When can we sign up?

[crude nexus]

bro why do I see you on every CTF server 💀

actually... respect the grind 👏

[languid pine]

You do realize that to know that, you'd also have to be on every server 😉

[viral lily]

Hello there , new here

[novel fossil]

Hi, please help me. I don't receive an email after registering for the team "Sell Garage For Flags"

[novel fossil]

Thank you, the letter has arrived

[warm gull]

yay

[fast heron]

What is the max team size?

[meager wadi]

[deep escarp]

is the ctf online?

[meager wadi]

[dark pond]

Hello friends apart from the game i want to talk a special persion who well knows about payload ?

Is there anyone here ?

[neon matrix]

what is max number of team member?

Is there a team size limit?

    No

Okay

[sharp slate]

hi

[neon matrix]

nice to meet you

[clear blade]

is there gonna be hacking?

[stone dove]

HI

there will be forenscis or no ?

[rapid nacelle]

there is no team size limit, thats what it says

[meager wadi]

no

[thick panther]

hmm

[thick panther]

i dont think so honestly

what if i join and then dont do anything

[buoyant shoal]

[mental heart]

Hello organizers! - I have recently created an AI powered intrusion detection system and I am looking for a CTF where I can test the system. Any interest?

[tribal vale]

usually in a ctf we want competitors to successfully intrude on a challenge...

hmm idk if that came out right

[queen meadow]

do you mean running it as a challenge where the goal is to evade the IDS?

[mental heart]

Ideally I would want it to successfully identify that someone is on the host hacking away

It would need to collect some packet data on the CTF host using a python script.

[meager wadi]

sorry, we're not gonna do that

[mental heart]

Sad face

Ok thanks for chatting

[stable thistle]

aww not running random python scripts on your servers? And here I would've asked to run my flag stealing ram doubling script

[gritty swift]

Run IDS on your system -> outputs "yep, there's an intrusion, you ran my random python script" 😄

[stable thistle]

100% detection rate

[mental heart]

Obviously the script code would be shared

it's just collecting a few data points on every packet

Much less invasive than publishing pcap files

[amber wind]

here's my script

if any(chall.solved for chall in challenges):
    print("intrusion detected")
else:
    print("no intrusion detected")

hope this helped

[rapid nacelle]

Tbg i got a flag stealing ram tripling script, you should run it on your machine trust
(Joke for legal reasons)

[tribal vale]

i wonder if there'll be a cypatdiscord team again

[mental heart]

This script would have no use in the real world, as you would not know what is being done ahead of time and they won't tell you until after the damage is done, hence the need for IDS

[uncut flume]

yet people still use e.g. EDRs

[queen meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/joke-jk-penguin-laugh-its-was-a-joke-gif-14574338

[rapid nacelle]

which wins
4000 members of the cybpat discord
Or 1 ctf
(clearly the ctf)

[mental heart]

Sarcasm is impossible to detect via text. Hence the invention of /s

[hoary mango]

the survey was really easy

insanely easy

def deserved 1 point

bad chall ngl

[silver ember]

what defines a hard survey

[loud vessel]

noted, we'll make it harder next year

[hoary mango]

pls do

here's my wp for survey

solved it last minute at 6 minutes left 😂

didn't get us any higher on lb though

usually these kinds of google forms web challs are harder (like deeper nesting or split up/homograph text)

I know nahamconctf's was harder, I nearly blooded

The last 20 seconds I was refreshing the scoreboard all the time, I was afraid someone was going to submit flags the last seconds

yes, I am leak my email

it's okay

will there be official writeups or challenge source code released?

[meager wadi]

yes, official writeups will be in the link in #announcements and we'll release source code for everything soon

we spent all of yesterday on three challenges and we solved none of them 😅

@void coyote re: #writeups message

good catch, we'll update the announcement to include a deadline

it'll definitely be after wednesday though

at least a week, possibly more

I don't believe it

it's not true

it can't be

redpwn is a high school team

okay so it still exists

[gentle island]

there is no high school anymore

[hoary mango]

what the fuck

how did you nuke the entire school

bomb?

gun?

I don't even want to hear

can you continue this tradition for this year 😍

that's horrible

that's just

that makes sense actually

are you trying to make us fail pico

I'm trying to not clog up chat too much

I don't send that many messages, do I?

okay but panda has 700

[uncut kestrel]

yes, but counterpoint: they're an organizer

[hoary mango]

okay fair

I don't think I've sent that many, right? I joined a day into the CTF...

and my messages are usually information-dense enough that it's not like chat flood or using the enter key as punctuation

[rapid nacelle]

yk am i the only person who looks at the web challs, goes like "wow thats perfectly reasonable and secure-looking code i would maybe write (if i were 10x better at writing quality code)", and then watch the wps brutally murder the chall

yes

my web code is really bad

[willow kindle]

hi

has the ctf started yet

no

[uncut kestrel]

nope, it starts in 363 days

tbf, it does help keep the server on discovery

or at least it did last year

really gotta advertise dicectf 1 year before the next event

next year's gonna have an AI-based SEO challenge

hello organizers

i'm frustrated that, despite this competition being named "dicectf," in prior years it has focused entirely on hacking (which is illegal btw) instead of gambling

will this oversight be corrected in 2024?

[tribal vale]

thank you for your feedback

[oblique snow]

i noticed the "all expenses paid" has been dropped from the description of the finals hehe

are you still planning to cover costs partially? or not at all

will there be challenges for less experienced ctfers in this ctf? or will it be more focussed on filtering out the best of the bunch for the finals after quals

want to recommend this ctf to some people starting out with ctf but wasn't sure if it'd be more for "seasoned" ctfers

[tawny wigeon]

we expect to have the same difficulty as in past years

[agile tapir]

nice

[narrow niche]

awesome

dice ctf is always op

[scenic dew]

couple questions:

1. how many teams qualify for finals under each division, I think it said 8 from open and 4 from junior but the ctftime info has been changed so want to confirm.
2. It said 5k USD prize pool for quals? Is there even a prize pool or is that finals.

[tawny wigeon]

the mention of a 5k prize pool was a holdover from last year

[scenic dew]

figured that wouldn't make sense

[tawny wigeon]

we're planning to announce concrete details about qualification rules and any additional prize info tomorrow

[hushed gate]

will this information be released tomorrow as well?

[astral thistle]

Hello, by any chance will there be some Mobile challenges ? 🙂

[tawny wigeon]

Yes

[south dune]

What's the difficulty level for this ctf

[lunar hatch]

Is there a resolution regarding ctftime oauth?

[karmic musk]

No clue

Still having the issue

[meager wadi]

@iron marsh @karmic musk @lunar hatch ctftime oauth is now fixed, apologies for the delay and thanks for reporting

[meager wadi]

quals will be about as difficult as prior years

[torpid sparrow]

[south dune]

[tawny wigeon]

happy to answer any questions about #announcements message here

[tribal pollen]

Is there a team size limit?

[narrow niche]

Are teams in junior division in the open division as well? - if the top team is a junior team, would they take up one of the 4 junior slots or of the 8 open slots

[tawny wigeon]

no

[tawny wigeon]

yes, teams in the junior division will still be considered for the top 8 spots

[tribal pollen]

Damn so y'all got funding for teams w/ 200 people to proceed to finals

Wild

[tawny wigeon]

no team size limit for quals, yes team size limit for finals

[tribal pollen]

What's the finals team size limit

[vapid beacon]

[tall cliff]

[dapper wadi]

(excluding amateursctf)

[waxen sigil]

you send 3 teams

[meager wadi]

a team member of a qualifying team cannot also participate on a qualifying team in a future event

[tawny wigeon]

If the same team wins first place across multiple competitions, we’ll move down the scoreboard

[dapper wadi]

wdym move down

[agile tapir]

for next team

[tawny wigeon]

We will invite second place, unless they’ve already qualified, etc

hello there

[round venture]

what is the difference between open and junior division

[gloomy horizon]

Hi,
in many challenges, for example, it says nc mc.ax 31001. Can someone please explain what mc.ax means?
I know nc 145.156.12.35 2000 for example, but not the CTF syntax.
Thx

[true delta]

that's the domain name the challenges are hosted on

[polar elm]

same thing basically

just type it it will work the same

[gloomy horizon]

ok, thx

[polar elm]

if you want to know more search DNS to know the difference between domain and IP

[gloomy horizon]

I think I know it.

[round venture]

does anybody know?

[long grove]

There are two divisions: open and junior. All players are welcome in the open division. Teams in the junior division must consist entirely of currently enrolled US high-school students

https://dicega.ng/dicectf2024.pdf

[tawny wigeon]

[meager wadi]

[primal sleet]

the public dicegang github is mainly writeups and ctf infra right? theres 2 networking tools that I have no clue what they do though lol

[meager wadi]

[uneven pendant]

most of the ctf infra is under redpwn lol

[meager wadi]

[dapper wadi]

is redpwn a subset of dicegang

[meager wadi]
